7 STARDEX GUI NEW FEATURES ENG 2017 Work with the device starts with the main section. Firstly, choose the type of device to test pump or injectors. Then choose the manufacturer and the serial number of the product. Enter part of the serial number into the search field and only the appropriate results will be displayed in the list below. The next step is to choose the test mode. In MANUAL mode, all the test parameters are set by the user. In this mode there is no testplan and there is no report on the results of testing. Current-voltage characteristics of the signal to the injectors will correspond to the current-voltage characteristics of the product with the selected number. This mode is recommended only for advanced users. In the TESTPLAN mode, a test is performed following the test plan parameters. In each test, all the set and measured parameters are preset. Navigation through the tests is done by left-clicking on the test list. Most of the parameters can be changed, according to the user s needs. In the AUTO test mode there is no ability to change test parameters and navigate through the tests. All the tests go in preset order. The CODING mode is designed for getting repair codes for injectors. As in AUTO mode all the tests go in preset order, but the number of tests is significantly bigger, which leads to longer testing time. At the end of the process, repair codes for injectors appear in the additional section in the CODING section. NEW, EDIT, SAVE, "+", "-" buttons are used when creating and editing your own testplans/profiles. STORE button saves the current flow or backflow in the report. RESET button resets the current flow or backflow value and allows you to restart the flow measurement. When ENABLE TIMING is activated by ticking the corresponding field, the flow measurement is done in accordance with preset timers. During ADJUSTING TIME, the user is given an opportunity to estimate the flow, but the final accurate measurement is displayed and automatically saved in the report only after the end of the MEASURING TIME. Using timer increases the accuracy of measurement and the repeatability of test results. STARDEX LTD OY FINLAND 7

8 2017 STARDEX GUI NEW FEATURES ENG PRINT button opens an additional window in which you can print test results on the printer, save report in PDF, change the company logo and info on the printed form, enter customer data. START / STOP button is used to start / stop testing in AUTO and CODING modes. In MANUAL and TESTPLAN modes it turns on/off test bench control section, high pressure control section, injector control section. The sequence of activation is: firstly the test bench control section, then pressure regulators and lastly injector control sections. When STOP is pressed all sections are turned off simultaneously. The user can start all the sections manually if needed (only TESTPLAN and MANUAL modes). 8 STARDEX LTD OY FINLAND

9 STARDEX GUI NEW FEATURES ENG 2017 Test bench control section Target RPM Temperature sensor 1 Pressure sensor 1 Fan indicator Fuel level Section On/Off Left/Right direction of the rotation Temperature sensor 2 Pressure sensor 2 Supply pump 3 position button Real rpm This section is available for users of kits based on STARDEX 0801, 0802, 0803, STARDEX DIMAS, STARDEX DIMAS ULTIMA work benches. In the section there are controls of the motor and booster pump of the work bench, as well as instruments for monitoring temperature and pressure in the main lines of the work bench, fuel level in the tank, cooling fans. Before starting work on the bench it is necessary to set the rotation direction of the motor (right / left) in accordance with the high pressure pump installed on the bench as well as turn on the supply pump or put it into automatic mode. At STARDEX work benches equipped with their own high-pressure pumps, the rotation direction of the pump is right by default. To activate booster pump click boost pump indicator. Clicking it again sets automatic mode of booster pump. One more click turns boost pump off. In automatic mode boost pump starts simultaneously with the start of the motor's rotation. STARDEX LTD OY FINLAND 9

10 2017 STARDEX GUI NEW FEATURES ENG To start test bench motor rotation click the motor section switch button or the main START/STOP button. The engine will gradually gain the target speed. To stop, turn off the section switch or use the main START/STOP button. 10 STARDEX LTD OY FINLAND

11 STARDEX GUI NEW FEATURES ENG 2017 Pressure regulators section Target pressure Current Current Regulator 2 activation Current Real rail pressure Section On/Off Duty cycle Regulator 1 activation Duty cycle Duty cycle Regulator 3 activation In the section there are controls of the pressure regulators. The real pressure in the rail is also displayed here. If the regulator is activated, then when the section is switched on, the signal necessary to reach the target value is sent to it. Current, duty cycle, pressure can be a target value. Double pressing of the pressure regulator activation button sets constant power on mode. In this mode, the signal to the pressure regulator is given regardless of the position of the section switch. This function can be useful when working with a pump with installed normally closed SCV. The values of current, duty cycle and pressure can be changed during testing process. STARDEX LTD OY FINLAND 11

12 2017 STARDEX GUI NEW FEATURES ENG Injector control section Pulse width Injector type indicator Section On/Off Pulse frequency Injectors selection indicators In this section there are controls of injectors. The work with this section is different for single-channel and multi-channel devices. For a single-channel device, the injector selection buttons determine which injector from the kit you are checking (only one button can be pressed). For multi-channel devices, each injector selection button is linked to a numbered cable which is connected with the injector and if multiple injectors are selected they work simultaneously. The signal to injector is characterized by the length, frequency and current-voltage profile. It is important not to be mistaken with the type of injector tested. If the current-voltage profile does not correspond with the injector under test, in some cases the injector or device may break down!!! It is very easy to check the injector type: measure resistance between the contacts of the injector using tester. In the solenoid valve the resistance is not more than a few ohms. In a piezo injector the resistance is approximately several hundred kohms. STARDEX devices generation ULTIMA are equipped with a measuring module to measure resistance, capacity and inductance of installed injectors. Also in ULTIMA generation there are more opportunities to generate a signal of the required shape and another parameterization of the signal current-voltage profile. For more details, refer to the sections "Current graph and current-voltage characteristics and "Measuring module". 12 STARDEX LTD OY FINLAND

13 STARDEX GUI NEW FEATURES ENG 2017 To send a signal to injectors, first activate the necessary injectors by clicking on the corresponding numbered indicators and then click section on button. The signal with a preset length and frequency is sent to the activated injectors. Also, when the START / STOP button is pressed in the main section, this section is started automatically immediately after setting the target pressure. STARDEX LTD OY FINLAND 13

14 2017 STARDEX GUI NEW FEATURES ENG Additional section. Injector flow meter Delivery measuring units Backflow measuring units Upper range limit Lower range limit Delivery value Backflow value This section used to measure flow and backflow of injectors. When using STARDEX devices equipped with an electronic measuring unit, measurements are made automatically. The flow measurement data is saved in the report when the MEASURING TIME timer reaches the end or when clicking STORE button in the main section. If you click RESET button in the main section, the measurement is reset and the measurement process starts again. If there is no electronic measuring unit, then the measurement should be carried out in the test bench beakers, and the results should be entered manually in the flow value field. For convenience the units of measurement can be changed from ml/min to ml/100cycles, ml/200cycles, ml/1000cycles, l/hour. If TESTPLAN or AUTO modes are selected, the upper and lower range limits for the test are displayed on the beakers. In MANUAL mode, there is no target flow data. 14 STARDEX LTD OY FINLAND
